Inventor: PARKER RICHARD HENRY
IPC: C08L83/04
Filed: 2003-08-06
Abstract: A new adhesive coating composition, particularly for use on airbag fabrics, which is composed of a silicone polymer and an appreciable level of a copolymer of ethylene and a polar monomer, is provided. This coating provide s excellent adhesive properties to the coated fabric and provides a synergisti c effect such that lower gas permeability upon inflation may be obtained with this coating than might be achieved with the silicone polymer alone. Additionally, such a coating allows maximization of the adhesion characteristics on one-piece woven airbag fabric such that blistering upon high-pressure inflation can be reduced, while retaining a high degree of inflation gas retention. Fabric treated with this material in the manner described herein permits reduction in the cost of the coating itself (by reducing the use of expensive silicone polymers). Airbag fabrics and cushion s, as well as methods of making and using such a novel airbag coating material are also encompassed within this invention.

Title: System and method for generating embedded resource updates for output device
Inventor: STOKES MICHAEL
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2005-05-17
Abstract: A system and related techniques generate an update to control programming, such as firmware, to embed in an electronic document and transmit to a printer, facsimile or other output device. Compatible printers or other output devices according to embodiments of the invention may contain an intermediate language interpreter which receives, interprets and executes the embedded update in the electronic document. That update may include for example an update to the printer's firmware, downloaded forms, fonts or other updates or enhancements which may for instance be stored into EPROM or other memory in the output device.  Because the resource update is encapsulated in an intermediate language object which may be universally interpreted by compatible printers, facsimile machines and other devices, updates may be delivered with a need to generate specialized code or follow specialized procedures for specific manufacturer's products.
